Sorry for big image
How to shrink it

The word “ahh” in that context can be seen as slang expression for a inappropriate word.
Also, you should use the Contact Us button if you have question about the comment filter, to avoid potential inappropriate conversations and conflicts with the forum filter.

(#4)It says “your most recent comment appears to include a bad word” to make things generalised.
It doesn’t say in the profanity word detector
It doesn't highlight the specific word that got filtered, as that could unintentionally expose people to inappropriate words and the meanings of them. ( For example, if a child misspelled a word and saw a profane term highlighted, they might become curious and go investigating the meaning of it )

you put ahh which is a replacement for another a-word
that means donkey but also the inappropriate body part
edit: at this point, just simply say “goofy”

Let's not discuss this here. In that context, it's inappropriate because of social media slang. I would advise you not to use the word again or find child-friendly alternatives (even though I probably would agree with the context).

It's slang for a word meaning the area where the brown stuff comes out (and a donkey)
it could be used for screaming “AAAAH” or something, but the filter still says nope.
